Kansas too

Its obvious the media is hammering these decision makers to cancel everything because of the idealistic safety of the people. However, if I was the head of conference or the NCAA, knowing that I have far more to deal with than being idealistic, that I would have a problem with cancelling a huge...

At this point from what we know from what we are told, and that information is fairly vague, all of this is either a gross over reaction or there is a whole lot that we do not know. What I take from this is how fragile our structure and system is, that we have a flu virus, that is transmitted...

What a bizarre scene. I am watching Jay bilas on ESPN at an empty arena, with bands playing, music filling the arena, no fans and the back drop of 2 power 5 conferences cancelling their tournaments. Stuff you would see in a movie.

And aac and sec. Others to follow I am sure

Unfortunately, I think it is very difficult for a team to adjust back to the free flowing type of offense that Iowa has had under Fran after having to get accustomed to the thug ball that is played during the second half of the big ten season. If you really think about it, we played at Illinois...

The thing about this year is that the race is really wide open without any great teams. Kansas looks to be pretty good and is peaking, but after that all the ACC teams are beatable without a ton of star power unlike years past. Same for the SEC. The Pac 12 looks as down as their football...

Well written. To me, it is a great disservice to the teams in the B1G to allow this kind of play because it does none of them any favors in the national tournament when games are officiated, usually, quite a bit tighter by not allowing the hand checking, grabbing and holding on to a player that...

Thanks for the response. I knew that he scored all those points in high school and did just as well at that Nike camp, so he obviously is the real deal. But I figure that anyone that is that dominant at any level will be able to get the ball and then do something with it. Is it a Joe thing or...

I didn't see any of Wieskamp play in high school so I don't know what has made him such a prodigy. So my question is, when he was "the man", and he needed to get a bucket at the end of the game, what did he do? I ask because I just don't know what he is good at. Don't roast me over saying...

And this is and has been the problem with the big ten for a long time. At the beginning of the conference season games are definitely called tighter, however, by the end the games are much more physical and that is because it is allowed to be that way. Of course you can adjust to it in big ten...

I think schematically what Purdue has done on both offense and defense was deliberate and effective, definitely not a fluke. On defense, they double Garza as soon as he touches the ball and they face guard Wieskamp and CJ. That always leaves an open Iowa player to either shoot an open 3 or...

I am not so sure last night's game was as much of an indictment on Iowa as it was Purdue. Purdue has size, speed, shooting, plays really good defense and a lot of depth, so how in the world did they play so poorly at times?

When I think about us offensively in a half court set, what I would like to see in this order: 1. Garza with single man defender getting the ball on the block 2. Open 3 point shot by CJ 3. Open 3 point shot by Wieskamp 4. Open 3 point shot by Garza 5. Kriener getting the ball on the block...

When I change the settings to reflect tonights games and then just hit submit, which all the games after this look like they will be chalk, then it puts Iowa at the 6, however, it is Illinois, Maryland, Ohio St, and Rutgers, all teams I am fine with Iowa playing. I would not want Iowa to see...

I havent heard anything more about this so I looked it up in the rule book because that was the first time that I had ever seen a foul reversed after video review. This is what I found: This is all under Rule 11 - Instant Replay Section 1 - Art 4 Art. 4. The officials shall not use such...

Does anyone know what plays are reviewable and what plays are not? I cannot remember, ever, seeing a foul reversed after going to review so I didnt know they could do that.

You bring up a really good question, and a person that is really objective would have to ask the question if we are not better this year BECAUSE of the attrition? The starting lineup would have had to have been: Cook/Garza/Wieskamp/JBo/Moss. I for one think that it took Garza having the post...

We clock in at #18 in both polls. 8 B1G teams ranked in AP, 7 in coaches. We are the third B1G team ranked behind Maryland and MSU. If someone told you after the Tennessee loss last year in the NCAA tournament, that: Cook goes pro JBo only plays 10 games Nunge out for entire year Moss...
